-ए अहै

Has Done: -ए अहै

Level 3Sounds Like ē ahai

The -ए form with अहै says that something is done and still matters now.

How It Works

The -ए form is the stem plus -ए: लिख gives लिखे, खा gives खाए, कर gives किहे. It does not change for gender.

It is the form used when the speaker has just done something or when the result is still true. ऊ चीठी लिखे अहै: the letter is written.

For a verb with no object, use the plain past with the helper: ऊ बजार गवा अहै (he has gone to the market). For earlier past, replace अहै with रहा.

ऊ चीठी लिखे अहै।
She has written the letter.
लिखे अहै says it is done.
हम खाना खाए अही।
I have eaten.
अही goes with हम.
तुम फिलिम देखे हौ का?

अम्मा खाना बनाए अहैं।
Mother has cooked the food.
अहैं is for a respected person.
ऊ सब काम किहे अहै।
